Mr. Speaker: I have selected the amendment in the names of the hon. Member for Birmingham, Selly Oak (Lynne Jones) and her colleagues.
	Motion made, and Question proposed, To leave out from "That" to the end of the Question, and to add instead thereof:
	"this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Identity Cards Bill because it is the wrong answer to the problems of crime and security in Scotland, Wales and across the UK; it risks becoming the latest IT failure and the money that is to be spent on introducing identity cards would be better spent providing thousands of extra police officers in communities and investing in courts, prisons and rehabilitation services to provide genuine security for the people; it introduces extensive new powers for the Government and threatens basic freedoms for the general public; it offers an illusion of safety based on technology and not intelligence; it is a gold-plated and over-complicated proposal which the
	Government cannot be trusted to get right; it is driven by a cynical and narrow party political agenda based on fear and scare-mongering; and it promises to be a multibillion pound blunder that leaves the people of the UK with a high technology piece of plastic but too few police on the beat."—[Lynne Jones.]
